We enhance the analogy between field extensions and covering spaces by introducing the concept of splitting covering which correspondences to the splitting field in Galois theory. We define semi-topological Galois groups for Weierstrass…

A finite group G is called admissible over a given field if there exists a central division algebra that contains a G-Galois field extension as a maximal subfield. We give a definition of embedding problems of division algebras that extends…

In this paper we develop a general method to prove independence of algebraic monodromy groups in compatible systems of representations, and we apply it to deduce independence results for compatible systems both in automorphic and in…

We prove the Galois correspondence between the subgroups of a finite automorphism group G of a simple vertex operator algebra V and the vertex operator subalgebras of V containing the set V^G of G-invariants.

For a genus $2$ curve $C$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ whose Jacobian $A$ admits only trivial geometric endomorphisms, Serre's open image theorem for abelian surfaces asserts that there are only finitely many primes $\ell$ for which the Galois action…

For each of the groups PSL2(F25), PSL2(F32), PSL2(F49), PGL2(F25), and PGL2(F27), we display the first explicitly known polynomials over Q having that group as Galois group. Each polynomial is related to a Galois representation associated…

The core of the Taylor-Wiles and Taylor-Wiles-Kisin method in proving modularity lifting theorems is the construction of Taylor-Wiles primes satisfying certain conditions relating automorphic side and Galois side. In this article, we…

In this work we generalise the main result of arXiv:1812.05651 to the family of hyperelliptic curves with potentially good reduction over a $p$-adic field which have degree $p$ and the largest possible image of inertia under the $\ell$-adic…

We solve the inverse differential Galois problem over differential fields with a large field of constants of infinite transcendence degree over ${\mathbb Q}$. More generally, we show that over such a field, every split differential…

Let $r>2$ and $\ell$ be primes. In this paper we study the mod $\ell$ Galois representations attached to curves of the form $y^r = f(x)$ where $f$ is monic and has coefficients belonging to the $r$-th cyclotomic field. We provide conditions…

Given a set $S=\{x^2+c_1,\dots,x^2+c_s\}$ defined over a field and an infinite sequence $\gamma$ of elements of $S$, one can associate an arboreal representation to $\gamma$, generalizing the case of iterating a single polynomial. We study…

Let K be a field and \ell be a prime such that char K \neq \ell. In the presence of sufficiently many roots of unity in K, we show how to recover some of the inertia/decomposition structure of valuations inside the maximal (\Z/\ell)-abelian…

We describe a method for counting the number of extensions of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with a given Galois group $G$, founded upon the description of the absolute Galois group of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ due to Jannsen and Wingberg. Because this description is…

We formulate for function fields an analog of Serre's conjecture on the modularity of 2-dimensional irreducible mod l representations of the absolute Galois group of Q: our analog is not restricted to 2-dimensional represntations. While the…

The problem of understanding whether two given function fields are isomorphic is well-known to be difficult, particularly when the aim is to prove that an isomorphism does not exist. In this paper we investigate a family of maximal function…

Let $k/\mathbb F_p$ denote a finite field. For any split connected reductive group $G/W(k)$ and certain CM number fields $F$, we deform certain Galois representations $\overline\rho:Gal(\overline F/F) \to G(k)$ to continuous families…

This paper focuses on a refinement of the inverse Galois problem. We explore what finite groups appear as the Galois group of an extension of the rational numbers in which only a predetermined set of primes may ramify. After presenting new…

Taylor-Wiles type lifting theorems allow one to deduce that for $\rho$ a "sufficiently nice" $l$-adic representation of the absolute Galois group of a number field whose semi-simplified reduction modulo $l$, denoted $\overline{\rho}$, comes…

We establish the automorphy of some families of 2-dimensional representations of the absolute Galois group of a totally real field, which do not satisfy the so-called `Taylor--Wiles hypothesis'. We apply this to the problem of the…

In previous papers, we defined $q$-analogues of alien derivations for linear analytic $q$-difference equations with integral slopes and proved a density theorem (in the Galois group) and a freeness theorem. In this paper, we completely…
